Was. News.
First the only thing we were excited to see Committee and the press voters say that
you're off to great start here but that is our first meeting of the year which is
on my birthday so it's a great deal that. My instructor on one of the P.T.O.
President really wonders for going to doctors with thought at first the primary
campus president says your principal same thing Tommy get on with it and the what
he said immediately principle I assume are just coming in. Also I wanted to
introduce the advisory committee members. But it will be up just to the right as
one of the members of our. Has been helping us lots of different preacher months of
things we start here Jim Carr is the past president has been helping us all with.
Everything from Sun computers back on track and carried out what it is
a number of large trees ultimately although the large said there was
a number of large brown right now right there is
a number electric. Christine Ponzo is the secretary these are sort of those not
here is the treasure and I'm the president my this is the money from the easy
committee. And I started last year they see committee we have it is unbelievable
group of people which is why I got the order here that the president is like what
three people in every one that stepped in to fill in those positions I have given
up and so we're going to you know better job this year off to
a great start so we're excited we're going to group to get together to talk things
. We hope that we can be
a good conduit between the parents and the teachers and to help the principals of
as much as we make or campuses
a strong and successful as it can be so with that we're going to start with one of
the topics of tonight's agenda and that is the food service. Director Sherry
because we're sure you hear that because you're trying to see the end of the
ninety's the door. And you know we've talked in the media is how you know
Jack look at the men you know we are you know sure what it is
a good Blitzer says the markets are little such things so we thought we bring in
the expert that's right because you're here to talk to us still. Well I actually
have
a couple examples of some things that were asked about some of the things that maybe
when I met doing them versus the way that they are offered to me I got some samples
of the chicken bite which is a almost
a chicken like it will hold chicken tender that has
a theory light on Terry and the glaze on it I also ride
a bird if you work by which is a bonus for real live it's
a very small piece of the biggest three on the God of my barbecue sauce and I got
something out any of those up I also brought on some of the Arctic Tater bites the
trial still runs off to me to be tails it's up anybody any of you want to go out
and try them feel free I also brought some samples of what they look like Paul on
the raft that we're trying to do this year we didn't have high amounts last Friday
as I thought we would meet now so we're hoping I want to do it like every month or
every five or six weeks so that we can get the kids you know accustomed to having
it come my understanding is all the kids that got them last week really liked it
we're putting on
a drizzle of ranch dressing on turkey and strategies and then giving those and
students like them goes with evil and choose other options they want to run like
lettuce tomato on the Kaffirs. Few comers.
Black olives and anything else that we think the kids might want to put on they can
take anything from the garden marks which are out every day for the kids and we are
so pleased with how much the kids are eating and eating it eating off the Gerber
we've had to increase the molds not only at the higher levels but even I can't read
healthy because the first couple days the little ones received the card and it was
just wonderful to see them trying to be nice things and smileys are telling you
that the trees are coming back pretty empty so they're taking it they're eating I
think this is just wonderful. I've brought us
a little of what's on this Friday which is the human she's a brick wall it's
a small hollow go read forwards on old green which credible I'm going to but I
started ham it up and we put she's on it and put it back in the oven so that I
didn't put in the microwave just so you guys could see what they look like they're
not as melted as I would hope they were then but it was kind of what I'm on so if
you guys want to go and try and give that stuff please feel free I would like
questions to you guys have to be on the menu items that you are not going to go
you're wondering whatever what they are for existing. With my boss the stick is
a cheese filled bread stick that he is already rich and it's got low fat months old
she's in it and then we give the kids come here there are. A reduced sodium pizza
sauce for me or their sauce
a big. And one we just take
a moment of time to just walk you know what you're going to say and I'll say so
cover it up I guess later stuff anybody wants to look at stuff the trials least
field research records from his work OK sometimes well mannered someone not sure if
.
I'm
a couple of the questions and I was asked were about the prices of the meals and.
This year or the elementary price they just gave your five is two dollars and sixty
cents and for
a five day week that's thirteen dollars and I have some copies of all of we have
a chart they just want to breed
a couple years ago for instance on the website so you can use that as
a reference guide there was
a question John that was supposed to be about how much money people should put in
there are coming and that's kind of up to how many go how often you think your kids
are going to eat so maybe I'm once worth. For how many times
a week they're probably going to eat or will eat is probably the best answer I can
give you depending upon how many children you have the bridge will be slippery so
that was kind of
a tough question for me to try to answer. For breakfast this year we I sit down
with my staff and we've developed
a new two week menu cycle for cater five and I have it listed right here and I
believe the best is putting this or has put this on
a website I've got to the summit on I did up
a look today about how we're doing with breakfast and it seems like I'm at
a great school levels and getting more and more students that are utilizing our
program and we have this program to help the kids that don't have time to get
breakfast or don't actually have something for breakfast at the ready to learn for
their day and that's what we're hoping that we get more students involved and you
know get them to come in and have some busy they have a good
a good base in their stomach when we start their day or we're going to molest your
their school day at this building that starts at seven. Seven thirty yes seven
thirty in the medium on
a seven fifteen the high school is seven and primary is also seven thirty.
Until the students have to go back to go start their day in class.
I have been looking around and there's two states that have some really good lunch
assistance for their state people and for just about anybody and Ohioans got some
real. Good menus that's really good recipes that are very much still based on the
new guidelines that we've been given and I'm trying to come incorporate some of
those items and next week there is
a fiesta. A few estimate that we have on call. It what they called it
a feast of pasta bait and it is
a grown Turkey that has we're teens tossing and some Mexican
seasonings type will take seasonings that we're going to put
a little bit shredded cheese that's crushed up on top. They've got some really
interesting things that I don't know if the students here will be familiar with or
want to try but I want to keep trying to incorporate some of them I found
a really good on spinach salad with fresh strawberries and some other items and
some seasonings added to it I found
a broccoli salad that's got honey and vinegar and
a few other items that I'm going to try in the next couple weeks to get some more
vegetable different vegetable things come for the students to try if any of you
have any suggestions that we could try please feel free to e-mail me give me
a call if you've got any recipes you want to try stuff your kids like please do so
because we want to make our garden bar so that there are things that the kids look
forward to and more definitely did was. Just.
Put I would use one of the ones that was brought up to me. I just want to make sure
that if there is an allergy that you're making good schools aware of and making
sure you got something on file with the nurse's office if you have specific
questions about menu items which I know that Mrs Temple's and did have done with me
I don't know if you just let me know what items you want me to look up for you for
specific allergies I will gladly do that for you get back to this and as I can once
you look at the menu or you know from something there's children say they see at
home or at school when they get home you know feel free to let you know and so I
can. I get up on my time and resources to see if it's something that your students
should avoid and all the kitchens pay out
a list of all the kids with allergies and like what he says is right between that
silver pillar it's
a right on the other side got the students picture and what their medical issues
are so my staff will become familiar with them relatively soon and know who they
are and know what to help them go through but encourage your kids to to let the
ladies know so they know who they are and I know that the Dawn is really trying to
work with not to. Run to try to work with your son and she knows we have known so
she's aware of it and should we should be looking out for him for that but that he
should. Be OK good I'm glad that it's good because I'm going to her right away it's
full blown Does anybody have any question. Number
one his or her down. At the grid so little they can do they can get for
a while to get any more fruits and vegetables that they want we have specific
guidelines that were put in place last year I've got it I've got to be within
a five fifty six fifty weekly calorie range for it's going to hit so we give them
second sandwich that's going to bump them way way over when I get
a few points before we have to do some sort. But they've loosened up some of the
requirements they gave us very specific numbers last year out of the numbers of
grains and proteins that we could give to me. And it was really tough for some of
us to get our calories and give the kids
a full meal without adding some things that were not quite as feeling as mean or
sort of gray so they opened up their requirement temporarily the end of the last
year all through this year we think that U.S.D.A.
Is going to open it up permanently as long as we can stay within the calories that
they've given us to stay in for the entire week then we'll be OK We can we have
more flexibility to many what works one aria.
Holding hands you going into bankruptcy which most of you probably know. We now get
our mail. From the same column from the same delivery company which is meat and
dairy they were able to get right to read formula recipes for the job and know
their golden currency was sold at the end of last year they got their rest so does
your son try them out this year.
OK now you know the range and to try it I brought in some samples of this building
actually come out of the stuff they run with some really big things and I put it
last to last and I asked some of the kids to come and try it with the store and
they all really liked it and so most of the business here he used the same company
and get their love for me it's in our music. And it seems to be going very well so
I wouldn't want to try a. Different media to get
a different person and that's not exclusive the kids different recipe just like
your brownies my kids and your brothers because you get to the rest as they can to
get their recipes and give them permission to. Share. That.
With them no may continue is the theory of all oh that's right you know and you
have to go look because if you're
a mom of three of them so we know. If you look inside and the poor will tell you
what you got and OK. But they didn't have
a proprietary ability to use that recipe. It's come something I thought it was
going to come but now they do now they've given it probably sometime in May.
But. You know I'll just say I actually and I were in. It happens here here twice
a week and I have not heard any complaints this year and was here when it switched
over last year and there were planes but I haven't heard this here so that.
You can try to feature. That the. Police
just didn't.
Get your high handed the morning go right to the students can choose to get milk on
the tube and probably answer that question better myself. Because we minister
pricing I mean this or that the funding for it in the peanuts for our system but
they have Mr Holmes what time it start and how it should be given. Any
specific questions. OK How long did it take you all.
Three. Find the real you know
I covered almost what we scatter are I want certain we've become about to move for
a little while here and usually the least the. Least of the side tables in the lead
number the stable so we know which was the first or last and that's how we just
missed so they're in there for who. I was we dismiss or to always don't think
you're going to be there and do that. But by looking point by We'd like to know but
you're. Very similar to live with the numbers.
You know we don't have the same tables but we make them stay at least fifty or up
to some of them may be out. Yet so we ask them to at least stay for fifteen but
they can stay up to thirty if they need to get big. They take my.
Word for sure that. I don't want to yes they can shoes in the
jelly a possible when I use
a cross was this year last year. When smokers had the big keynote recall they got
out of the U.S.D.A. Madone business they will no longer take U.S.D.A.
You know they will only deal with their own units and we have the ability when I
get funding from the U.S.D.A.
For different Come news that we can use and I can send all peanut butter to
a company we're not using it's called in jail went from advancing here
a lot of things which is that this year I bought about thirty five pieces of
Brussels at the end of the school year last year knowing that it was going to
change in the prices going to go way up finally out of the list but I can't get the
ones I want I've been trying for weeks since before school serving advanced care
got slammed and the production and I love so I have to keep getting in the bus
going in the bus so hopefully in the next like two weeks I'll see this Thursday
with the media they told me they were supposed to get into Friday I do not give
them one day we'll see what happens this Thursday but then so be around they're
kind of and I'm on the same day make up they're just not
a problem sandwich on their own wholegrain with great jelly and peanut butter they
can also choose of worlds' Gilbert they can also use
a storage unit and we also handle between the makers just tell them they want to
believe these have. Can taste candidates through and they've also got shredded
cheese the students can get them so the students want to just make
a salad they're going to sell. Them and your genes don't agree with me.
And you know. We have here we have you know three tables that doesn't need to be
asked because it would. Nazis got to have peanuts and you know it's you know Bill
Clinton did make sure that we have to tell him water in the first year of the first
things on there is no rest of. US need to do
that here you know. Where we.
Get the say that you know yes yes yes. This is an enemy that's
not he did nothing with. Her and didn't have anything to do with that.
Because the Russians. Are. More. There is
a little he over here on the side I like to be OK now you can reference back to
them and by. Oh and the other thing I'm going to let you guys know is this you're
going to intervene break from our farmland it is incredibly low and low in
fat much lower in sodium and tasteless exactly the same as the other hand I tried
the morning which of the national school food service showed me in Kansas right now
I have
a special rhythm so I'd like thirty pieces of them sitting in my freezer and. If I
don't want to take to get them but they're very good I'm just not sure if I should
not use them that way because I don't want it's about you know it's to me it's very
good of me to know the difference here is where it is served it's to the freshman
on the first day of school and not one of them said. So just so you know I'm doing
like Hence your American story in the coming up bad. Service program you're really
. These are like me who is. Good just really
really. Really. Was can you. Really
really really. OK reward
to work a day presentation that's more that's
a good thing. From reason efforts and. Community which.
Is why. You saw I am one of the co-chairs of the market gave me the
original table set up over here with some free samples there such
a. Longish plan so please take take some with you.
Sol you have probably hopefully gotten your marketing order form in the last week
or so for those of you who've been here for
a while you're pretty familiar with marketing for you know families who are new to
the district just wanted to give you
a little information about marketing basically it's a monthly sales that is
a fundraiser first schools be on
a percentage of profit and that percentage is based on how much we sell so the more
we sell the higher profit percentage. In the past we typically earn about five
thousand dollars a year for marketing so it does make
a big difference. And you don't have to do necessarily anything other than buying
food and there's
a great variety of there's not surprising vegetables there's me. Snacks as you can
see over there they do some special sales throughout the year with cookie dough and
desserts that are really down the list. And see what else can I tell you the other
thing that I want to let you know is that it's
a great way to volunteer even if you decide you don't want to purchase any of those
items you can help us out by volunteering our sales each month so each month the
food is delivered we unpack the food sorted out and then pack everyone's orders
so we need people to help us with that we also need people to call and call our
costumers the day before the sale to remind them to come pick up their items so
that's something you can even do from home. Does anybody have any questions about
marketing. Here. In I think there are some fliers over
there I know some of the most popular items that she can States if you've seen
those they're chicken breasts that are individually wrapped so they're super
convenient very healthy if you look at your order form there are items that are
marked as taste for health and those are healthy items that fall under
a certain number of calories and sodium. The vegetables are very popular that's one
of the big popular ones in my house I love the broccoli the broccoli is fabulous
it's all clear red snow stands so my kids will eat that. Some of the other ones
the cookie dough can be very popular when they do those in the deserts. The snacks
are very popular they have the goldfish Grahams are big one and. They have string
cheese they have peanut butter and jelly again the grant is which you know
obviously there's an allergy issue there but those are. The chicken stakes are
probably the biggest seller of those going to say oh we saw both of them which is.
The Worst President Ever the salmon to your friends and the reality of it is that
over three thousand dollars of our families the fruits come to market the huge
portion from his you know for three years or more that we can utilize it whether it
is for some schools as well as a couple. And they do
a lot of work there too it's really volunteer help help when it comes to marketing
it's really really appreciated so it's looking to step up and help or Baltimore. To
free to contact us which channels to help. You some little volunteers so you know
it's the out and the Baptists. And we do we do have free babysitting available but
sometimes the kids that come along will actually help that we love that it's great
to see that help Chip and get involved so. Kids are welcome there. It's
a great weight and if you like organizing this is the fundraiser for you.
Know we're going to come to the meet of the very order here I'm going to have the
principals give us some reports and we're going to start. All right. First of all
as always this group is so great at helping us in so many ways all the money raised
last year. Has supported
a lot of projects you'll notice new risers this year. Also quite
a bit of technology purchased with the money we get. Some of the keyboards for I
don't need it for everyone but it's nice to have like this class those. So
a lot of the funds go into that and we also use it for our own mentor program where
we mentor students who need
a little extra support and we use it. For. Supplies for
some of our students if we need extra supplies and we also use it for.
Performing heard the sound ways that different people come in and perform
a year ago we had the Norwegian dancers come in they're not super expensive because
they're a school students but these are live performances are
a little more expensive and we use the P.T.O.
Funds to support those programs so it's it's great it's used in
a lot of different ways. We have some upcoming events on
a lot of it testing coming out which as you know that's kind of the route. The
state is having us go so it was September twenty third which is the fourth all
their students will be taking their measures of academic progress assessment that's
on the computer and that gives us
a pretty good idea of the math and reading and then we will also have starting at
third grade. Is the state test called the W K C test and the World Courier
probably in early November I'll send something out that has the weeks for that and
a fourth period it's quite extensive they have to take sides and some studies and
reading and writing and man and third feel it's just reading and math but it does
the usually three to four days at least even for those two groups to do all the
testing cards. We have so upcoming. Field trips are fifth graders are going to the
McKenzie center until the second or fourth graders are going to hold world
Wisconsin on the eleventh and as I mentioned earlier on the seventeenth we have our
Welcome to all of the silver house for third graders it's
a third grade science related arts the students do perform at their will but house
and I'm told are seventeen. I guess the sooner we do have lower
on P.B.S.
Here in spots like again I think most of you know what their kids are reading at
the primary school and start the stars and here is what they said power is as our
focus will be
a slightly different focus to each school as you go through so that continues we
had a big kick off with that with their figureheads performing last Friday we had
a big assembly which I think kids love. And I don't know how they performed that
rap I personally am able to do they haven't but he was well liked by the children
then teacher. And then we have. I just need to know if I don't know if this is the
forum for going up but we had our first time on line or just ration we already have
a list of things that need to be done differently as far as like you getting an
email back so you did acknowledges that yes it worked because I know there were
some people that were unsure. And there were some other little glitches that we
already know but would this be the forum for that or should we yes or no resumes I
know there are things you aren't invited to but you're that's where the Janjaweed
think of anything besides that it would be nice to know for sure that everything
you want to find actually went through anything you can think of related to that by
process would you like us to continue to do that what would you say compared to.
Your packets that were still the packet actually. I think one challenge is
that just over fifty percent of our members of either of these. So we're in the
process of contacting all those families so that's not impacted we have not just
the motion with your arses reciters is quite
a bit higher but you know I think the fees were
a surprise to most people news of that came like I think. That's. Before
even the end of the school year so people can budget for and it was
a big change for people in the car that there was
a visa. You know had it since two thousand and four I believe. People.
So we talked about actually like being out in the spring and I was here with
a bit of the. Yes but it was it didn't work at first so there is there was
a system problem at first to the troops and so on and that was my people didn't
want to just couldn't I wanted some additional might not have paid because you
didn't have to pay right now you could leave come back if you never came back or I
don't know the big central US It's
a major. Come back pay you know they'll become the person. That you're going
to the going to be that you track the thing also with the school stirred up and you
know what I would feel like that's up to
a great start with us and you know. There's
a way that. But
some other people said as big or if they went to one of the attachments that
sometimes it distorted by the time they got their view to where our that's good to
. See you on the way because there are a lot of handouts and
a lot of clicking. Doing
also in the bush. You know just to thank you for your continued support to continue
the story and the question did are you going to relocate some raisons other issue
itself. This time he believes that there has been
a change in the recess schedule for
a while because something is true. This is the last recess really has been
recesses back to back so normally they get
a fifteen minute after lunch and then another fifteen minutes different time there
are together so he only has one but it is extra long. Term and
that as a liberal changer has been we did
a last year starting last year with our fifth graders Yes.
No more of the nice thing about it is that you are transitions where you have to
get increases instructional time because if you when you bring them in from races
that always takes time well then if you love them not another time then bring them
back in now even though the recess is fifteen minutes it's actually twenty five of
last instructional time whereas if they go out right after they eat you only have
that five minute loss so it's to increase the number of minutes of this for.
Years and. Today feeling very. Having brains.
They haven't said anything to eat at least three days a week that five getting
a morning their fifth grade and some teachers will do like just
a little movement within their classroom if they don't have any kind of movement
opportunity. But usually they figure in somewhere between ten fifteen and twelve
fifteen before they're like they're going somewhere out they're going to art
they're going to meet so they're not just sitting in their own classroom. To belong
to P.T.O.
It's been the other successful Ostrow school here are very trying though you are
becoming on to your students on this is the first year we've had full day
kindergarten start first. Historically speaking we once had I can hear in students
on heavy set that is for the first week just you have to necromancy do as well the
school structure the healing structure. All the routines. But with four
kids have the last here we thought this would be
a good year to start all day first. But there are some surprises for them too as
far as the stem of the kids you know they only take so much circle either you know
we serve up for so many different things or first day there surely are two or three
hours you know sort of. Sort of talk about what would make the next year.
I was not coming and that's the first grade team is into the swim program this week
the ideas we disagree through program start next week so if you have kids I just
make sure they're in the polls. So soon it will be all set and with our school we
walk back and forth from our school to the high school from us to sitting on the
other and then we get the bus. So they get the one percent of. Us to talk to us to
assess what is going to. For her students I We also have students us with
a Last year was the first time that we had standardized assessment and
a good look. At the state is requiring the Pells assessments it's for logical
workers reading tests this year they've extended the first period so that's he one
next year we had just been told go to bring to. Our last year the map measurement
of what the prognosis was talking about was included at the can guard level so now
a one two students will have the upper reading and now both Paul him. And that's
new as of last year. September twenty six I've yet to have students in the one the
one the classrooms are gaps are two separate classrooms for all of the students
that classroom use i Pads. We have
a purpose for that obviously only applies to those parents and it's in the one to
one in just over the years or you sir know the sequence of them last year was one
class this year it's two classes next you'll be for classes also second rate the
following year all eight second class and there's
a similar sequence across the. End of the incentives. Come on
if you didn't but I'm going to hear this stuff last year this year goes at There's
no hoax I'd sign up get your purchase to sign first
a few years ago but do the reconstruction look like you're going to do traffic
groups said possibly lighting up they had wondered around and they had to remove
that sign a new sign will be installed on should be within
a couple weeks on the East Side how to help the school be
a catcher in the wall and the plan is the next summer we'll have something similar
M.P.'s either out front or of the traffic that probably be attached to the
last. In Roman Right now it's about one hundred sixty students per class in

a few students. To begin the year picnic and you have kids on the two campus per
P.I.A.'s kickoff
a less rigid the very first day of school first full day of school for vs agreed
students in New York was not good because they were here for the afternoon this
year and backed it up for
a couple days to convert students so we had the first Friday it actually was cooked
inside. The week search change plans for kindergarten students because they had
told us by curious So what not siting in their tree it would be needed but we
did the dance all the first three picnic because of
a piece of. Salt on his base gun the recognition health services here we rely on
her health services to provide guidance to us and through school paid for anything
that might be helpful if you were in training. Others can Social
what well for the P.C. Who to accept P.C.
For him I hate well attended I was
a little more choice because are going to look at the next year we're going to be
serving ice cream. Small dishes and to the point that there's been discussion last
week of our Building Council which covers childhood for the second grade and here
is a suggestion of having
a good childhood for it by the first and second free ice cream social on our campus
next year rather than having the primary students who are here and there's
something that will talk to your bugs in the future how we use your families that
we have love in these So take cover songs there's pros and cons to that but when
you're in did this you're like they did last. Is that on the move this from social
The parents are pressuring their students to the supplies come in the building got
Mom bought
a table by her child's classroom door in the quotes I enjoy the history here like
trace the beans some of that are paid to secure. That with the first day of school
we would have rebuilt the schools apartments the history things but they'll be
a little more discussion about that. Thinking of the very first day of school and
our Building Council get
a bill with no fees because of our team leaders of the school government spying for
the opposite of the example we talked about the first day of school last year hand
what the fault was that we had so much information short turns on the first day the
only security that new pilots Mars the peer slash you know three classrooms
and several. That some parents felt that they didn't get some of their questions
answered so the question I have for you and you we don't have to discuss it maybe
just because we're bringing back up in the spring has his parents become the school
had her first kid what type of information you tried. He's
a brilliant eleven patient do you have other priorities other patients I know we
can be addressed and we can provide the liver that other page that we just we give
you through another it's. Just something going to build of our students is
representing where we have kids coming going on more quickly than ever. So rather
than lose someone through the cracks or you know we're just in communication health
services recommending the answer to the pilot this year we agreed to. Go so far
it's going. Appreciations the swing sets are great that's I mean
I'll be here just this doesn't have to keep your buns from last year we created two
new things up for swings each and there in. From the existing swing structure so it
has helped have seen with Justin around the swing sets in the lines have been
minimal for him the strays are always. Saying we appreciate you having your
students prepared for school on the first day of school is
a huge transition coming off summer whether it's love lack of structure from Sun
the structure that you all day and not others. And again we
certainly appreciate your art compliance and patience with the new security system
. This is this is the security system as
a result of parents requesting an upgrade on the staff to improve the sick measures
of all three. And we know it's terrible burden on you come in at times and you come
in you know you are a beginner we are requesting that opposite a response
a procedure come in and sign the check again but we're see the group put of those
are badges the apple is consistent across the district ring the old buzzard this
hold your driver's license up to the camera there and there we see that that's.
Just sort of you know how we do have frequent visitors like the mailman every day
we have absolutely big here we have some other people that are coming that comes
closer it will be providing them some sort of coming here like ninety pounds so
they'll get through all those procedures every day when they come in but just have
to swipe their card just like Step number but those currents will be time sensitive
doesn't mean they can enter the building anytime absolutely here we know it we have
these are parts like two forty six. Russell thinking about divine parents who have
children in that school you hear something somewhere else is right now we can lock
the doors at dismissal and they really don't want. Didn't last new violence in any
school that were during the school day that's why I said he understood that's
why we still have on the market doors have
a specific time but there is concern about. Moving in the world.
So again that's pretty much just one teenage We will hear that will not our campus
but throw. Out some of our classes do superhits really program and
there is
a happily ever after for the Org April and that's what they saw So there's you know
the forty first one the preschools historically speaking of get
a really nice job in trying to figure out what we want is be
a knowing number three in the community we get
a very that was only strength has its a Ford it was
a close collaboration forty five he is trying to get more of
a partnership with them is he working on my perception system I have or just
committed our students who just paid for the programs specifically why did they
help with their stamina. And just their ability to be around in the building
expecting them just be able to jump on
a similar teen's mother that I was we all. Saw was you learning squeezer think
maybe steppers or Paula or we just made the assumption to separate school for
a year this is just another step in their journey and actually yes it is that. It
will be just perfect for. Every off the top. But thank you for all your ongoing
support again next. Year All right. All right so move it along remember
short discussion any recommendations for use of the P.T.O.
Funds are right for the schools the schools will
a lot of thought into it and always have great ideas and needs that are more than
willing to. Go. Put forth the funds for the risk one of their number at the start
of the year here to anybody that's here that has any ideas of what we might want to
use P.T.O.
Funds that will have
a little this year so where the ideas are sharing. Probably
as you know for
a little bit further into the year we have better ideas from both principles as to
what they're looking for and that we can always be present that everybody is well
so what things are here for you guys have any idea what you can think of for this
year's fines go I saw you put on our staff and more of the also from the school
governors so you have so we talk about any other right is there out there but I
guess it happens here it's so hard to follow the new sound system to the gym for
school zones music programs when you begin to have to clearly define purpose.
Is
a. Sensory tools for the classroom such as futures which is sitting
pause leads off kids that are from those times and those are resource Montagu
items that you I hope that one of our classrooms my son that small. I
this will technology for studios and see. What
a ruffian or possibly machinist are like. Mark or it's there and they can
be made out of
a test and curio whatever that's another thing. Possibly
a couple trees will play around like she. Did you know one big shoe tree on the
primary school one that's one. And you know the first being more understand the
sunrays is you know more of his sunglasses and that sort of stuff.
And then performing arts that's. That's
a problem. And I know what he's up there is going to donate their portion.
You. Know the sort of the better workout like than
for him honestly you know I was we've talked about the playground equipment.
We see
a decline each year as they go through their grades here in use of it it gets
pretty heavily used when you do playground supervision it gets very heavily used in
third grade a little less and fourth and very little and fit so we did if you have
a piece of an idea for
a piece of playground equipment that you think this age group would use that would
be worth conversation because that's one of the areas where lies talk about is
there something we need for there and you know for sure
a fifth grade teachers are not throwing any ideas out because the kids aren't
playing on that equipment very much like they do in their in third so if
you ever think of anything there. Will take those suggestions.
Otherwise we always you know the things I'd Shirley are the continuing for
performing performing arts and the technology needs you know that's continuous
really for us so those will always be on the list but if you have something
specific you know we'd love to hear. You know it's all right to.
Call for some share from. Children or parents or whatever. Funds are
given to them and the closer use of their discretion for schools for them so all
the reals everything else there is nothing that leaves
a friend in other words we have lots of things to fundraise for so good. For me.
You. Know we don't right now we have
a performing arts. Brain cell right here for what we like to write here and we try
to rotate it
a little bit so that it's not think of weird stuff and then through last year we
will bring on this year we're trying to have it be very good but we've had opera
for the young we. Didn't have
a free pass. To bring in people to write new
note to try to give them different opportunities in music or theater somebody is
looking into
a dance company which actually has some of our children in our school within the
program so that's one idea that was thrown out there. So it's very rare that
committee can look that for ideas and make you know some performing group seven
thousand dollars for
a one shot others like I said this I think the no Regents don't know region dancers
are two hundred or something like that so it really varies. So we have at least
here who is our goodbyes are committed for many years and we had tons of fun doing
. Things together and she's taken over the cash for trash. Will we have
a bit more but we're sure we don't want to put she's been doing
a great job and this is again one of our largest decides or know how to fundraise
one of our greatest sources of income to provide to the schools and so we're going
to run the simplest ones to do and so we're trying to kill it for some more
information. And I just took yesterday program this last month so I'm pretty new to
it and we're always open for suggestions or ideas that you know as I brought some
of the products to show you. That we collect the Box Tops for education is
the one program you can see there are quite
a few different products I just present things like my cupboard they're pretty
tight. In some cases I think this one there's two bad steps for education. Along
with with some products having to legals there also programs going on and pick and
saving the environment and perhaps an occasion and they will put those in their
weekly flyers where they will give you bonus tax. Provides
a certain number of back steps projects so we try to force their commission on the
P.T.O.
Base book site to let you know that there is going on so we can collect additional
steps we also collect labels for education you can see them by this Friday and
they're
a little bit bigger this one's worth one point. And then we in
addition to the tax you know we do like. Milk
love milk taps from. This particular program is from quick trip.
And then they also have plastic bags I don't know if anybody buys big milk but you
can cut the time plastic bags entering those at each of the schools has an area
where we collect It's called the cash for trash program in what you say it's right
by the cafeteria here and we're working on changing their theory
a little bit and making it clear for the students to see when they bring in trash
and and it is right by the secretary's desk and
a kind of the image I think it's still a bit and there's
a meeting today it's in the new office and most times people just send their trash
in with their students and they can put it into the bin. This is been
a pretty good moneymaker and I just looked up some of the numbers from last year by
UPS we're in seven thousand six hundred four dollars Jenny even their brains are
back stop supporting Nader. For what he's up for the label spread. Kishen we
earned in the number I'm not sure that's correct but it's at thirteen thousand six
hundred thirty three dollars so that's that's big milk caps is
a little bit less We're at five hundred seventeen dollars and one of the things I
want to mention about milk caps we did collect. Up until last year
Morning Glory milk camp slenderly Swiss valley camp school you see. All of those
programs are ending morning glories and you're talking very first Linda Lee is
October thirty first. Excuse me Morning Glories ending October first so we'll be
putting oh I'm going to look for people to get in their caps for morning glorious
if they still have them. Swiss valley is changing to prairie farm so we will be
updating that information on the P.T.O.
Website Kemp's is done and it was sold to another company and Goldberger and see
Sherry mentioned with bankrupt in the spring so we're still trying to find out what
what if anything we can do with all that yes we like the results but. The quick
drip program is still running and that's the one we've always liked the most boring
believe and they're very flexible about the condition the caps and bags come in so
please keep them coming and we can send them in in time they have
a great program so. Other than that we also collect.
Printer cartridges and Jenny handles that as well we do get
a little bit of money from them I think in our other category we are into hundred
forty one dollars last year and that was probably mostly from. The Tyson labels
Tyson labels is another one we laugh we don't get many of those but the printer
cartridges as well and there's
a fairly easy program to turn those in and get money for. That one other thing that
we collect or have been put through with cell phones but I'm not sure if I want to
continue doing that where we haven't really earned
a lot of money from their programs to work on the street yet you know the.
So that's something we want to talk with you
a little bit more about Jenny. And the other ordinator and I discussed that whether
we should continue with cell phone because it's
a lot of work. So I think that's about all I want to say where there are
students about the years for transfer over in. Your mind.
You go through the box for Education website and you sign up and you go through the
world. Hundreds of shops you go through you can her electronic fax tax on every ten
dollars you spend on Wal-Mart on line you get
a box. You know different stories it's a you know a box type truck or
a time. Or some great now these are double box tops. So
my mind anyway you can go through there or all. That's great and there was
a thing we wanted to research
a little bit more Jenny and I were talking about that and maybe put something on
the Facebook site again to get people involved with. The pretty easily.
Hands. On. One thing yeah I think we decided
that that is easier most people do it that way anyway it is easy to count them when
they're on the sheets but yeah I think we're going to go to just putting them in
they can hold. It we prefer to have the box stubs
for education separate from the labels for education and they're from the middle
camps but you know well we'll separate them will do with whatever we. Can do with
them will we have black people who are really good nothing I'm doing here. And now
. And again volunteers anybody who would like to help don't care absolutely evil
speak no evil just. Some close call to suffer the of her family for the
sixteen thousand bucks tops which are the six hundred dollars sister of your soul
spirit that last year I was going to be with you guys here so you're not it was
just really hard to cut nice and pretty but nobody. Ever saw that I mean are your
alternative music venues with time to put so I can help with that it's a it's
a career again easy way for us to generate my throw yourself away there you know
there was one other thing answer I was going to see again we're always open to
other opportunities one of the things we talked about is well I talked about really
a program where I was putting America in this so we need to get immunity or
involved in people who don't listen grandfathers whatever because we do have to
communities plastic like X.
Hats they're not easy to see but one simply can say break down my speakers or the
other one is over in the village hall and so maybe we were getting those more
visible and getting some information out to the rest of you like. You.
Know you don't have to just give you more and if you want to do it with it's really
easy to how do you know you can I can you know what you would you like me to be
graphic and yeah we don't want to look at your makes you glad to know we really
just get this here because. You know you're going to go to
the program and I'm going to look at some other programs through the music prepaid
cards and so. Will probably present some of these new families. It's at the next.
Place. You think. It's you know right. Now
because it's like an olive trees out. There that.
You know we definitely want to pursue all those programs increase the two together
it's sort of like the money that you have to spend on the silly anyway so you know
Precious and just think that maybe there's I just can't find love that's all fun
and live in mind that bucket set the delicious food bags in the library What's that
to me yeah those are some of the lines I mean I think this is the man we've got to
get like you guys
a clock we are using to this day. OK. Oh
yes very first collection is
a killer twentieth. Coming up in really you know you have
a lot of samples for people to enjoy and trash that is good really happy with the
restaurant open themselves given time to heal. But that's
a group program I want to keep that going OK So we're going to I just kind of
briefing go over some of the activities that have occurred already or that are
going to be coming up they're pretty old either funded or supported her supervisor
or are we you know run the actual events and so we'll start with what has sucked in
the already this conditionals that's just. Returning
a structure. On the ice.
Went back. On me fifty in the fall snow we've done
last year I think it's. A great. A
smaller and that means you will have. You know in. Mind it's
a program or defeat it. To trigger
a change it's time to get us here's to the house he said this to help me out
first tower. It's
a different room it's your choice you have. To buy.
It's really. The House
a fundraiser which is going to be story here at the end of this month this
executive says it's the know house of fundraisers just designed for us to generate
the nation money and we are putting in tax exempt status organization now so that
everything can be matched by employees or it can be tax deductible and rather than
send you home with the bunch of boxes of candy or corner of the things that you
have to generate income for you just say why don't we make it simple and just saw
some money through the system and this will go out to the ball all through the
campuses with the handoff and through other different portals over the last four so
that's our largest fundraiser by far of the here it's our easiest fundraiser
obviously and it's just
a great way to have people easy to contribute so any dollar amount is put except
the will. To push them that's just really get the base to build by some of the
other stuff the teacher appreciation program the tap this is designed to provide
the teachers were doing conference. Meetings with your families and children to get
some food and some appreciation for all records and things like that but if anybody
wants to cookbooks the great little snack that is healthy snack works another
fifteen dollars. To do so. With that we have
a Treasury report Lisa is either surgery or believe the recovery today so I just
want to report that the current balance of the check in to come this forty six
hundred sixty three dollars and fifty one cents and we have
a lot of activity this year. Other than just a few. The book sales there's
a gap we've got some profit loss details for the first couple of days here it's you
know our counter-surveillance first so we're really good shape there that your
books have been. Really the worst because of my registration is
a lot easier for us as a great reason for life easier this year it's also
a little less exciting things are going to do is pick
a cover for it and things are ready to take place there well so. Make that very
seamless and ensure everybody get on. With the bit that's been covered already were
really just earlier financially secure goals. E-mail survey we want to get to those
meetings OK see them in motion for
a German to help her with that but. The
second. Set of remains are. Where you.
Stick. OK great thank you very much for coming we'll see you in
a couple. Rain
